What happens
The Longest Night (Spanish: La noche más larga) is a 1991 Spanish historical drama film directed by José Luis García Sánchez which stars Juan Echanove alongside Carmen Conesa and Juan Diego. Written by García Sánchez alongside Carmen Rico Godoy and Manuel Gutiérrez Aragón, the screenplay is based on the story El año que murió Franco by Pedro J. Ramírez. The movie deals with the social amnesia that fell upon Franco's regime times once democracy was restored in Spain. The title comes from a line of Al Alba, a song by Luis Eduardo Aute and popular during the waning days of Franco's government. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
